Small Business For Dummies

Eric Tyson & Jim Schell · 2024
71/100
👍 Worth It

This is the 2024 edition of a franchise that's earned its trust — Tyson and Schell bring decades of real small-business experience, and the For Dummies format keeps it approachable instead of dense. It won't go deep on any one topic like taxes, but as a current, comprehensive starting reference, it does the job well.
